I added the tags but still didn't work.


There cannot be any spaces. There is a space before the https://.

On the other issue, is your camera set to reduce ahead of putting onto Post Images? The majority of photos you are emailing me are full size and that is good for quality, then I load it onto Post Images where they are sized for Nomad (800 pixels). The exception was the bruised arm photo which was loaded small or ?.

Here is the one photo you sent this afternoon... I will put it in the Graham thread as requested.

Blackwolfmt, great idea....

That be one of my tricks, I always bring a big box of Dog treats.

Baja Dogs are are sometimes a bit skeptical of treats as their not use to people being kind to them but you just need to go slow.....

Also when I stopped to get my tires filled, after lowering them on the rocky road , the tire Guy at the hwy 5 and 1 junction has about 15 dogs so that depleted my box a lot ! So bring plenty.....

I was told to take a piece of roast beast and put it in my armpit. Then my musk will scent the meat and supposely the dog will love me after that
In my armpit? Really?

Ok thanks. This is my kayak collection. Why do I need so many?

They belong to the homeowner and he stores them here.
Mine to use whenever I want.
Who wants to go kayaking?

On the way home I checked out 2 more of the supermacados in town. The mom and pops.
Amazing.
One has a clothing dept upstairs.
I ended up back at Calimex because the others didn't have fire wood. Lena.
If you are on your way south this is your last chance for a while to shop in a surpermarket type store. I think there are 4 here on the ( far) end of town. All close.
Dog tried for me at the gate out and then back. His mom opened the gate so I didn't have to get out. When I came home tonight. Smart move.
I think she can tell I have had enough.
My mistake was talking friendly with him at first so he didn't respect me.
He may be able to bite... but he can't throw a rock anywhere near as hard as I can.
And I owe him one. It might be his last.
Don't try to be friendly too a Mexican(dog). They see it as a sign of weakness. And start to cross boundries they shouldn't.
It's better if they fear you a little... they respect that and give you your space.
As it should be.

Goodmorming everyone else.
Last full day here.
Pretty day.
Will try for El Rosario in a bit.
Will look for cute ( non-biting) dogs to photo and try to blow a little sunshine up everyones tailpipe.
DK style. No more reality.;)
Or I can just report what really happens in Baja...
If you can take it....;)

Wednesday's Photos from Fishbuck/ San Quintín



Am I inside or outside?


Please don't pick on me. Yes, I need a haircut and a shave... and probably some plastic surgery to me Baja Nomad standards.
I can do the 1st two today before my firetruck ride in El Rosario today.
You can send my plastic surgery money to my Go fund me account.
Like a billion dollars worth...


View from the thrown room


I never want to leave this room again!


With chandelier


The gameroom "disco" has two bunkrooms for "crew quarters". 6 beds. Left side.
For the nephews and nieces of the Prince.
The future royals no doubt.
That house is even more "wow factor".

More Wednesday Photos from Fishbuck/ San Quintín & El Rosario



This house is a marvel...
I hope I can do as well with mine.



Old English Cemetery in far background.



And go to hiway Baja.
If I can get past that dog...



Gotta shave before my Firetruck ride.



They knocked the baja of this land about 10 years ago.
It sat fallow.
Glad to see some crops there!



Must have caught him during siesta. He really is a food dog.
Maybe my tough act was what he wanted.

His German cousin on the other hand... he doesn't bark... unless commanded to do so.
He sits calmly and alertly at all times.
He doesn't like his picture taken... security reasons...



Por favor, you go 1st Sr. Truck [Mike sent me two other photos of the truck nearing him, as well]



Where's Wierdo?
The hint is obvious.



[Books donated and sold at Baja Cactus Motel for funding to Halcones del Desierto emergency rescue service and fire station construction]



My helicopter was fueled and ready for rescue.

Unfortunately, the Fire Capitan was out on a call...
Now I have a reason to return☺
